Yes, you are right that there are differences between "formal" and "correct"

May I have a little suggestion : people wishing others to help correct mistakes / polish the English may consider adding an invitation like "comments on English usage are welcome" or something like that at the end of his posts.  Any views, dear all?

right...it is a very good idea to have an English corner for people to communicate in English.

Correcting mistake is also a good idea for improving English. But i also agree with ngan that correct ...

i agree, as long as everyone understands and the grammar is not horribly wrong, i think it's acceptable ge
if we just pinalise on ppl's grammar, it will lose the great fun in HKTTF ga la

I totally agree with Ms. Ngan and Mr. Riccardo.

Their English standard are much better than me. I am just an old office boy not a teacher. You can see I just have corrected one post but not the others. I would like to reiterate the view point of Mr. R that correctness and formality are entirely different thing, we, especially the student studying oversea or local, should be aware of .
